It’s back to life, back to reality after the holiday season and the start of a new year filled with so many possibilities! Keep your new year’s resolutions on track this year by making them significant but uncomplicated. Here’s some inspo.

#1 Take care of yourself.

Yes, eat healthier, exercise more and take your vitamins are all excellent ways to start off 2017. Consider referring to it as a lifestyle change, a way to put more healthy foods into your body this year rather than a diet. Make better choices. Choose the salad and not the fries but once in a while choose the fries.

#2 Stay warm.

Beat the cold and bundle up in a warm and stylish winter jacket this winter. Add a blanket scarf for extra protection from the wind chill and keep your hands from getting dry by wearing gloves. Don’t worry about not being able to wear gloves and use your phone; our warm gloves are tech-friendly!

#3 Try something different.

Seriously just try something different. Do you always opt for bootcut jeans? Try a pair of skinnies. There are so many different rises and versions of skinny jeans and our Masters of Denim are sure to find the perfect pair for you. Try highrise or midrise or a brand you never thought to wear. Be open-minded and try it on. You just never know the potential that lies beyond. Remember when Mom used to say don’t judge a book by its cover, well this is what she meant, kinda.

#4 Be bold.

Say what you mean and do what you say you are going to do this year. Then take your boldness a step further and test out colours in your wardrobe. Just cuz it is winter does not mean it is ok to be dressed in black everyday. Try olive or burgundy or pink. Yes, you can still wear black; of course but once in a while wow everyone with a bold hue.

#5 Be kind.

Make 2017 the year you do kind things for others. Volunteer; donate money to your favourite charity. Clean out your cupboards and drop off unwanted items to charities that need them. Compliment your friends; tell the people in your life that you love them more often and for heaven’s sake tag @jeanmachine when you post photos of your perfect pair of jeans and the stellar dress you found at Jean Machine. It counts as being kind to others.
